Los Angeles Angels

Tropeano was knocked around in his last outing, but fortunately he was able to get the no-decision against the Kansas City Royals. He went 4.2 innings giving up nine hits and five earned runs while he struck out five and walked one.

On the season the righty owns a 7.61 K/9, 3.08 BB/9, 1.45 HR/9, 4.35 ERA, 4.60 FIP. He has been an average pitcher, and we should continue to expect these kinds of results as he .299 BABIP says he’s been average.

Los Angeles has gotten back to playing winning baseball winning five of their last six contests in the past week. During that span their lineup is slashing .247/.303/.428 to go with 16 extra-base hits and 21 RBI.

Minnesota Twins

Romero was solid in his last outing as he put in a quality start against the lowly Chicago White Sox. He went six innings giving up seven hits, two earned runs, and one home run while he struck out four and walked none.

In seven starts, the rookie owns an 8.42 K/9, 3.47 BB/9, 0.74 HR/9, 3.96 ERA and 3.80 FIP. He has been consistent thus far and his .311 BABIP and close FIP says we shouldn’t expect crazy regression, but of course this is working with a small sample size.

Minnesota has been playing winning baseball in the past week winning four of their seven contests. During that time their lineup is slashing .252/.332/.478 to go with 29 extra-base hits and 30 RBI.
